Our sister service has recently released a case study detailing work that Greenhead College has done on creating a video storage system for use with Moodle.

Greenhead College provides and streams video content via its virtual learning environment (VLE) to enable concurrent viewing of content for all students and staff 24/7. By developing its own media server, to store video content and link it to its VLE, Greenhead has seen increased usage of its VLE, and has also removed the constraints of limited physical space for hard-copy collections in the library. A cross-organisational approach has brought together the ‘magic triangle’ of curriculum, learning resources and the technical team, which has resulted in seamless access to targeted, subject-based learning resources.

Taken from the case study summary

This case study will be of interest to those interested in the use of online video for teaching and learning within a VLE environment.

This is a really interesting case study for those interested in using video for teaching and learning.  If you click through to the case study, there are links to other case studies that are also recommended on this subject.

Hi Christine,

I posted the case study as projects/resources like this should reach as wide an audience as possible.

If others have useful examples we are happy to share them. Just get in touch.

Cheers
